EQUIPMENT CONFIGURATION & TESTING 

This section contains instructions for configuration and checkout of the G5 Electronic Flight Instrument 
after reinstallation or replacement.  The steps which are not applicable to a particular installation may be 
skipped.   

The person performing these procedures must be familiar with the aircraft, have a working knowledge of 
typical avionics systems, and has experience using the test equipment defined in this section.

 

7.1 Recommended 

Test 

Equipment 

The following test equipment is recommended to conduct the

 

procedures in this section:   

• Air data test set (pitot/static ramp tester) 

• Digital Multi-Meter 

• Ground power unit capable of supplying 14/28 Vdc power to the aircraft systems and avionics 

• Digital Level or equivalent 

NOTE

 

All test equipment must have current calibration records. 

7.2  Pitot Static System Leak Check 

If the pitot and/or static system lines were removed from the G5 unit, perform a pitot static system leak 
check in accordance with the aircraft manufacturer’s approved data. 

CAUTION

 

To avoid damaging the G5 pressure sensors, both the pitot and static ports must be connected to 
the air data test set.
